14th Teddy Bear [Video]

[asobouyo]

[Elicia woke up, stretched with a wide yawn, and then discovered sleepily that it was cold and her bed was a familiar tree log. Oh—

Oh, they let her go...! She remembers being confined to a cell, but they hadn't really done much but feed her really nasty food. And give her nasty syrup. So when she starts walking through the forest, she finds they actually gave her shoes and a long-sleeve for her troubles. Her hair was let down from the usual pigtails, giving a little extra protection for her ears. So... she was actually doing pretty well.

Hm. Which way was home...

She puts on her best brave face and opens her journal.]

I'm sorry I got lost, but the bad guys let me go... Papa, are you there? Don't worry! I'm okay! I was really brave!

[The sudden realization that she's okay and back in a safer place brings a few tears to her eyes, and she wipes them away.]

I'm sorry I left, but I'm here, s-so... I wanna go home now.

Is he coming to get you then? [It's a relief to know she's not injured, but still...]

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Mhmm! Papa aaaalways comes to find me when I need him. He's a really good papa like that...

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

I'm glad. [She breathes a sigh of relief. She had been worried.] I wasn't sure if... You're not injured at all, then? Do you want me to come visit you once your father finds you?

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

You wanna come visit? I'd like that~!

Oh—

[Suddenly, a thought!]

D-do you have any... flowers at your house?

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

[Blink.] Ah, yes. I do. Why do you ask?

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

D...Do you have any you don't need...? O-or anything like that?

[A pause, before she smiles.] I have some ornamental ones to brighten up the Welcome Center. Do you want them? [So cute, Elicia.]

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

[AAAAAA YESSSS.]

Mm-hm, mm-hm! And I'd take really good care of them, too! Promise! They'll be really happy with me!

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Well... All right. I can teach you how to take care of one of the plants, an easy one to manage, too.

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

You will? Thanks a lot, Ms. Shirayuki! I've never got to have my own before!!

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

A better reason to let me teach you then! I'll help you grow it to be healthy and strong.

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Then I'll be a real gardener!!

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Yes. Yes, you will. Does you father know about this?

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Mmm... No... I should tell him I'll have a real plant! 'Cause then he can help me if I get stuck, right?

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

That's right, and I'm sure he'd want to see it grow too, especially if you're taking care of it.

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

You think so? I'm glad, then!

I think I'll name it, too! Plants can have names, right, Ms. Shirayuki?

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Of course. Do you want to come over and check which plant you want, Elicia? That way you can give her a proper name.

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Yeah! I wanna~!!

Do you have lots of different kinds?

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Quite a lot. I collected a few from the forest and the flower shop before [Maybe a little too many species.] so I have quite a variety.

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Ooooh! What's your favorite flower, Ms. Shirayuki?

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Well...

... I never really had a favorite. They're all beautiful in their own way.

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Ooooh...

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

Ms. Shirayuki's so cool!!

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

[PFFFFFFFFFFT] Oh---! Um, thank you?

Re: [Voice]

[asobouyo]

You're welcome!
